Visible
8For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live as children of light 9(for the fruit of the light consists in all goodness, righteousness and truth) 10and find out what pleases the Lord. 11Have nothing to do with the fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather expose them. 12For it is shameful even to mention what the disobedient do in secret. 13But everything exposed by the light becomes visible, 14for it is light that makes everything visible. This is why it is said:
"Wake up, O sleeper,
rise from the dead,
and Christ will shine on you." Ephesians 5:8-14
When you take a look around you what do you see? A world that has good and a world that has bad. A world that has light and a world that has dark. A world that has sinful people. Where is it that you live in this world, in the visible or hidden in the invisible? Do you live sometimes in the good and sometimes in the dark thinking that no one can see in the dark? Each one of us struggles with living a righteous life because the world tells us it is exciting to be a little bad or live in the dark, because the sun always comes up in the morning. But, how many of us are guaranteed to see the sun come up in the morning. Let us live as individuals who live for the light and want people to see how Christ resides in us. Shake a little salt in your life and give it a flavor that all will enjoy.
Have a great weekend.
